I agree with that last statement but this isn’t one of the reasons why. | |

Good to see that the politics as usual yawnfest is back... .....Commenting on the remarks, a Labour spokesperson said: “We fully respect the independence of the EHRC. Keir Starmer has made clear he will cooperate fully with the Commission’s inquiry. We will implement, in full, any recommendations made by the EHRC.” | |

There may well be issues with it but I don’t think JC is in any position to take the moral high ground and be the one highlighting it, considering the problems under his leadership. Just seems to be an extension of the blaming everyone else narrative. | |

Not a reverse. It’s clear the context in which he’s speaking and why he has a personal interest in doing so. It’s an attempt to discredit the victims. | |

Damned if he is, damned if he isn't. I wish he'd bügger off, he's caused enough damage. Leave the comms to the new regime as they seem to be doing a much better job if it. | |

His presence and policies have certainly caused problems for certain people. But hard to argue he himself has caused the damage that then resulted. As far as I can see he got all the right people agitated. | |

Of course, there's primary source evidence for the Israeli government being involved at the start. And promoting support for Israel and disrupting/delegitimising pro-Palestinian support is also a widespread approach by the Israeli government around the world. You can deny it but that would make you a liar or a fantasist. | |

Banksy old chap, you don't get to get all 'punch a nazi' and then start defending someone else's racism/dodgy associations because they're on 'your' team. It's not an opt-in/opt out thing. That goes for you as well, Koonters, Seablu and Dollers. I love you all but stop defending Jezza for his choice in mates. Sooner or later, if you hang around with this many racists, you start to look a bit suspect, frankly. [Post edited 2 Jun 2020 15:14]

...and all the wrong people a massive majority which has set this country back years and cost thousands of lives. A shred of competency as leader of the opposition and things wouldn’t be so bad now. That’s the uncomfortable truth. His lack of presence and ability to put policy across is exactly why he needs to be forgotten and the country gets on with holding Cummings and his cabinet to account. | |

I think that's massively ignoring the tide of partisan and media nonsense he was fighting against. And what prompted all those attacks? Social democracy that you can see everywhere else around our European neighbours. Unfortunately, we are as blindly resistant to progressive politics as the US and need to up our game massively as a modern representative democracy. If things are bad I tend to blame those who want to keep it that way, rather than those who want to change it. | |

Which bit of "lack of presence" does it ignore? He fanned the flames by his terrible approach, inability to break free of the cult that propped him up. He acted like a man trying to hold onto power not one with it. A completely ass about face "leader". To pretend he wasn't complicit in his own dismal failures is silly. | |

Corbyn has his flaws certainly but oddly his own failure wasn't about turning towards his supporters but opening up to his opponents within Labour and naively hoping to work with them. If he'd been more ruthless and savvy then perhaps he could have stemmed a lot of the tide. I also disagree with him about Brexit for his original stance on the EU but he and Starmer then tried to make the Labour policy about consensus, which again was probably naive in a purely party political sense. But can't really understand what world you're living in if you don't think we've just witnessed 5 years of a concerted and unprecedented campaign against the opposition and its leadership. With a remarkable lack of detail and reason to back it up. If you and a majority are happy with those standards of politics and media coverage then we've got exactly the government we deserve. It's the other side of the exact same coin. | |
